On the grubby outskirts of Paris, Grace restores bric-a-brac, re-sets gems. She calls herself Julie from California, and slips back to a rented room at night. Regularly, furtively, she checks the hometown news on the Internet. Home is Garland, Tennessee, where two young men have just been paroled. One, she married; the other, she loves. Both were jailed for a crime that Grace planned in exacting detail. And so, in Paris, begins a waiting game.
